INDIAN TRIBES HIT BY “FLU” Many Found Dead in Remote Places, Far From Medical Aid. Salt Lake City.—Certain tribes of Indians on reservations in Utah have been almost decimuted by the lnflu- enza epidemic, according to uhcon- firmed reports reaching the state board of health here.

Bodies are being found fn many out of:the way places, it is reported, where Indians, men, women and children, died alone and far from medical as- sistance. A canvass is being 1pade in this section, and it is feared that one or two small tribes may have been wiped Why Druggists Recommend Swamp-Root For many years druggists have watched with much interest the re- markable record maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kid- ney, liver and bladder medicine.
